Charlotte perriand indochine blue chaise lounge manufactured by cassina a symphony of modern lines an iconic chaise longue equipped with armrests, to read, write and work in complete relaxation. In a crescendo of lines, three curved segments joined by fasteners intersect, designing the aerodynamic silhouette of this piece of furniture where the armrests are the natural continuation of the base. Initially crafted in rattan, due to the difficulty of finding metal in war-time, chaise longue indochine is manufactured by cassina in tubular steel, honouring the original intuition of the pioneer of modernity. Upholstery fabric or leather structure tubular steel padding recycled pet fibre charlotte perriand designed chaise longue indochine in november of 1943, during her term as director of crafts in vietnam. Confined to bed toward the end of her pregnancy, she designed a chaise longue with armrests that allowed her to continue to read, write and design. The first specimen was in rattan, due to the impossibility of finding steel because of the pacific war. In collaboration with pernette perriand-barsac, cassina recoups the original intuition of the pioneer of modernity and produces chaise longue indochine in painted tubular metal. In a crescendo of lines, three curved segments joined by fasteners intersect, designing the aerodynamic silhouette of this piece of furniture where the armrests are the natural continuation of the base. The chaise longue’s cradle is equipped with elastic webbing that provides support to the seat, optimising its cosiness. A topper with removable upholstery envelops the structure. Its soft padding is made of recycled pet fibre, punctuated by a quilted motif, stitched from edge to edge. this piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
